You and your family can have a part in Operation Christmas Child 2024. A small shoebox containing inexpensive gifts can make a big impact on children around the world! Plan to have a part in blessing children in Jesus' Name.

Pick up your free Operation Christmas Child boxes, labels, and instructions at the signup table at Westside. Be sure to label your box for a boy or girl with provided labels or arrange tracking on line to follow your box(s). Go online for more information and instructions for packing a box. You may pay shipping of $10 per box online or include a check payable to Samaritan’s Purse in your box.

If you don't want to pack a box, you may take part in another important way by sponsoring one or more children to take "The Greatest Journey," a 12-lesson discipleship course designed for Operation Christmas Child shoebox recipients. Children who participate in the program learn how to follow Christ and share him with others. Every $6 gift provides one more child with an opportunity to learn about God's love for them as they study the Bible and are taught by a trained local teacher. Click here for more information about this.

The final day to drop off your box at Westside is Sunday, November 24, so don’t delay.
